Passive humidification

Bypass heat and moisture exchangers

Air Life Bypass HME Air Life Bypass HME (BHME) technology delivers aerosolized medication treatments without breaking the ventilator circuit. Easy one-handed operation allows bypass engagement for simple medication delivery set-up. The bypass lever position and clear visual indicators help identify gate engagement. The filtered BHME helps minimize the risk of respiratory complications and reduces the risk of cross-contamination.
